wind some and spilled some not there within that lava of afternoon with a bib on over bronze oh how the terra cotta can swallow we fed cream to the cherry children sweet nectar from our thorns and they were the laughter songs that floated after on our residue we made windows within our hands and love without hour urgency they were the voyeur eyed kind that wanted to be older as winter and we would bring them summer, after ____________ daark [This message has been edited by Dark Stranger (03-23-2012 09:43 AM).] |

we made windows within our hands and love without hour urgency And that gives a warmth that lingers throughout all seasons. *S* Beautiful work! |

Philosophers, and poets study the invisibles concealed within the visibles...this is a good example of that. This poem, and your others show more than the solid surface value of Terra Cotta, And if you read closely, maybe cross your eyes a little, one can see there is much more to it than a vessel of clay... and that that orange clay is a container that holds an explanation of a short period in a someones life. This is why I read you. "Poetry is an echo, asking a shadow to dance." |

Ice amigo...you do have your eyes tuned to the right station most of the time..dreams suck in the moisture of reason and let it dissolve them into portions of reality that leave that grit in your teeth as you smile. Thanks guy |

I love the colors and the light that I perceive in this sensual concert of "daark" words. A world that always calls for exploration. Margherita |

DS...I can feel the terra cotta summer coming as the clouds rain the sky and the wind whips the too early flowers. It is almost time for the strawberries of Oxnard to drip the children's chins. |

I think I've said this before, but it bears repeating... you would give my very favorite author a run for his silvered money, honey, so I curtsey to my favorite man who writes McKuen keen.... |
